Hi Kerry.

This question really belongs in the regular discussion group 
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/tiddlywiki>, because it is a basic 
use question.

But, anyway: Yes, there are several alternatives, here are two. The most 
basic is what you describe, i.e to click the save button and save a local 
copy each time. I don't know about Mac but on chrome I'm using an extension 
<https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/downloads-overwrite-alrea/lddjgfpjnifpeondafidennlcfagekbp>
 
that lets you overwrite an existing file rather than adding a copy of it. 
It is the same procedure if you want it on a flash drive. ...but why you 
talk about making your TW public so you'd still need to compliment it with 
that aspect.

Personally, I use the free TiddlySpot service a lot. This can be set to be 
private but is public in its default state. You'd still need to provide 
your viewers with the url tho.

To set up a tiddlyspot, you must first create it (i.e register its name) 
which is done at http://tiddlyspot.com/ or by using my "skin" intended to 
simplify getting a TW5 onto it http://tiddlywiki5.tiddlyspot.com/ (the 
problem with the original tiddlyspot registration is that it doesn't 
feature the "flavour" TW5, only older versions). This procedure should 
take... one minute?

So, assuming you now have an empty TW5 on tiddlyspot, you can save changes 
there but you must first set the password so you're allowed to make 
changes, i.e go into your wikis Controlpanel > Saving > Tiddlyspot and set 
the same tiddlyspotname and password that you registered.

...IF you have a local TW and want to upload this content to your 
tiddlyspot site, you also do the same thing, i.e go into Controlpanel > 
Saving > Tiddlyspot and set the tiddlyspot name and password, and then 
click save to upload from your local wiki onto your tiddlyspot site.

You mention Beaker Browser. I don't think this is a good idea because you - 
and your readers - are expected to use a totally different kind of browser 
for this that is based on a different web technology.

The many other options I'm not familiar enough with. Again, the regular 
forum is the place to ask.
